Cell Averaging Constant False Alarm Rate Detector with Hough Transform in Randomly Arriving Impulse Interference*

چکیده
In this paper we compare the efficiency of a Cell Average Constant False Alarm Rate (CA CFAR) detector and a Hough detector with average randomly arriving impulse interference. We assume that the target echo signal fluctuates according to a Swerling II signal model; the randomly arriving impulse interference is with a Poisson distribution of the probability for appearance and a Rayleigh distribution of the amplitudes. The profits (losses) are determined as a statistical estimation by means of the probability characteristics of both types of detectors, obtained in Matlab. The profits of the Hough detectors are calculated for different values of the probability for appearance of randomly arriving impulse interference with average length in the cells in range. Our results show that Hough transform is effective in conditions of decreasing randomly arriving impulse interference.

In this chapter, several advanced detection algorithms for Track-Before-Detect (TBD) procedures using the Hough Transform (HT) are proposed and studied. The detection algorithms are based on the scheme described in (Carlson et al., 1994) to use the Hough transform for simultaneous target detection and trajectory estimation. The concept described in (Carlson et al., 1994) accepts that a target m...

In order to improve the interference immunity of the detector, a new CFAR detector (ACGCACFAR) based on automatic censoring cell averaging (ACCA) and cell averaging (CA) is presented in this paper. It takes the greatest value of ACCA and CA local estimation as the noise power estimation. Under swerling II assumption, the analytic expressions of fa P in homogeneous background are derived. In con...
